Subtitles by Seglora

The flies troubles you again
don't they, my dear?

Perhaps they'll take your mind
off of it and do you good

What between the burying ground

the grocer's,the wagon-stables
and the paunch trade

the Marshalsea's flies grow very large

Perhaps they've sent as a consolation
if we did but know it

That's right

Think of a sweet little child being
born inside the Lock

Now ain't it pretty,ain't that something
to carry you through in pleasant?

And you are crying,don't you

Making yourself so famous

All the flies are falling into
the gallipots by fifties

Everything is going so well

and here ain't your dear
gentleman along with the doctor

How are you now my dear lady

No better than could be expected

Now indeed we are three,I think

We shall come out of
this like a house a fire

Only tomorrow we intended she
should go to a country lodging

We're as right as we can be,Mrs Bangham

Go outside and fetch a little brandy

Or we shall have you giving in

Thank you,Sir,but none on my accounts

Mrs Bangham you'll be off this
minute to fetch a little brandy

Let us see

What shall I do? What shall I do?

A very nice little girl indeed

A little but well formed

Why? We hadn't had such
a thing,I believe my dear

Not that I couldn't name the time when

By rights,I ought to be the godfather

Perhaps you wouldn't object to,
really being her godfather?

I don't object

All the family comfortable now?

Yes,you've been very kind to us

I don't suppose we should be
here much longer now, a few weeks

Of course,only a few weeks

Is he to go out soon?

Out? He'll never get out

Unless his creditors shove him out

Amy!

No wonder

I wonder which is the helplessness,
the newborn baby or him

Come for a conversation,my dear

Your uncle is going out

Take care now,Mr Dorrit

Where's uncle going?

Outside

What is outside?

Outside? Why? It's people
all manner of people

Streets,dust,houses,and it is
fields and there is the river

Where are the flowers?

Over there! Just over there

Is it nice to be there,Bob?

Lovely

Full of flowers

There is daisies,butter cups

dandelions,all manner of games

Have a little taste

Let's have an egg

Was father ever here?

Yes, sometimes

Would he like to be here now?

Now? Not particular

Mr Tefford,Sir, is to be seen in places
frequented by the best legal company

Let me see

Have we here any little
property left on trouble?

No? Any little trifle tucked away?

Mr Tefford is acquainted with the most
eminent legal authorities,you understand

Any unlawful preference is credited

Any creditors taking precedence
in a forceful manner

There is a Mr Tite Barnacle

Barnacle? Any other names?

I don't know

I'm very much obliged that you should
take the trouble,I am most obliged

Mr Tefford is acquainted
with the most eminent..

Hi,yeah,come on in then

Wait here a minute,will you?

I didn't know you had children here

Oh Lord,we have a regular
playground actually here

My little friend was born here

Born here?

Father is a real gentleman,
educated her at no end of expense

Plays the piano like,what,beautiful

Any little sticks that is coming for you?

Haven't got any, man

Learns languages too, speaks
French better than we

Our regrets

Your respected
lady should be no more

In short,Sir,on behalf of all of us

In short,Sir

Here it is

Would it be useful
telling me to keep this room?

Oh,child

What are you doing,child?

I am Mrs Robinson

Mr Robinson is in Australia,
address,the bush

Please,Ma'am,I was born here

So you are the child?

What are you doing?

Please,Mum,I want to learn to read

Read?

But then you must go to school

Why don't they send you to school?

Amy,my tapes are run
down,tie them up will you

Hurry

Amy,you are a dear

Ah,you are the child? You
are the child aren't you?

Your habits mangled,Esq.

See to my cuff,Amy,if you, please

How long you've been

You are a good girl

You are a very good girl

My favourite child

It's not too hot

Where there any letters?

No Father

What am I to do if that letter doesn't
come,what am I to do fettered as I am

Are you quite sure there were no letters?

Can't someone carry the hot water for you?

It's not heavy

My daughter shouldn't been
seen carrying hot water

I am doing what I can to keep
a position here for you all

I am doing what I can for you

With the compliments of Herbert
Smangle on taking leave

This is very gentlemanly of Mr Smangle

quite unexpected but I mustn't
say very gentlemanly

You didn't see me over
the kettle,did you Amy?

Please,Uncle,I want to go to school

Very good girl,Amy

Why do you want to go to school?

I want to learn to read

But you are so little

I'm quite strong enough

Please,Uncle,there is a
school where you live

Bob says so

Please can I go to school,
I'll go in the evenings

Please,Uncle

Eight take away four carry two

I can't make it out

Four four carry three

Getting quite proud of your father

The oldest inhabitant soon

I've got ot all worked out,my dear

The Marshalsea wouldn't be the
Marshalsea now without him and the family

Look Bob I've divided the
house keeping money

Look,Monday,Tuesday..

Good Day Sir

Come on in

Get to move on,young fellow

If you please,Sir,I was born here

Oh,you're the young lady,are you?

Please,Sir,you are a dancing
master,aren't you?

Yes,what can I do for you?

Nothing for me,thank you,Sir

If,while you stay her,you could
be so kind as to help my sister

Teach my sister cheap

My child,I'll teach you for nothing

Come to the side and backwards

Again

Good girl,how did you get it?
With the right?

What is the dreadful noise?

It's the dancing master

Fanny is doing like a house in fire

A little weak today

Leave all that and come and talk to me

Time Mr Dorrit,Mr Dorrit

You know they call me the
Father of the Marshalsea

I dare say eleven years in the place
gives one the claim to the title

It looks a little small here at first

But there is a little good company

Among a mixture

Let the fellow lay an exception

And the air is good

Blows over the sunny hills

And take great care of yourself

Yes,Sir

That's your milliner,my dear

It's time

Me?

What have you forgotten?
What can I do for you?

I forgot to leave this for
the Father of the Marshalsea

My good,Sir,he is infinitely obliged to you

You come with me,my dear

Sit down

Please,Ma'am,I was born here

You are the child,are you?

Yes,Ma'am

I'm sorry I haven't got anything for you

It's not that ,Ma'am

If you please I want to learn needle work

Why?

Look at me! Hasn't done me much good

Nothing seems to have
done anyone here much good

I want to learn all the same

I am afraid you are so weak,you see

I don't think I am weak,Ma'am

You are so very,very,little,you see

Yes,I am afraid I am very little

I want to learn all the same

Good girl

Ah,lovely

Bravo

Bob,what's to become of poor Tip?

Well,my dear,something
ought to be done for him

Suppose I try to get him into the Law?

That's would be good of you,Bob

This won't do my dear

Now that's better

Father,Fanny isn't
going to live with us just now

She is going to live outside

Or with uncle

You surprise me

Why?

Uncle wants a companion

I think he should be looked after

A companion?

He comes here quite often

You look after him a great deal
more than your sister ever will

Also it may be as well for
Fanny not quite to live here

Always

She wasn't born here as
I was,you know,my dear

I don't quite follow you,Amy

But it is natural I suppose that
Fanny should prefer to be outside

You shall have your own way

I'll not meddle,don't mind me

Now it's stop a bit

Supposing Plornish was put out
your bit of writing in a good place

Supposing he finds somewhere where
they want a bit of needle work done?

Supposing he finds a couple of
places in want of needle work?

Supposing

Oh,it's Tip

Come here,haven't seen you for ages

Supposing I get together
eight shillings a week

Do you think that is reasonable,Bob?

My room upstairs is going to cost me
four shillings a week out of that

And supposing

Tip

Look here old girl

I've been in that place for six months now

And I'm not going back

Not going back?

Don't look at me like that

I'm tired of it so I have cut it

Well,my dear suppose I try
to get him into the hop trade

Dear Bob you are very kind

And Bob and now that Fanny earns
a little at the theatre where she dances

Supposing I do get some needle work

And supposing all these things

Suppose

Miss Dorrit

Please sit down

Plornish is out to see
about a job,Miss Dorrit

-But he left this at his chair
-Thank you.Mrs Plornish

There is a Mrs Clennam for you

Stamford Chips right and turn left

Then left cross off Hallows Lane
then round it

-You're the Dorrit girl?
-Yes,Sir

She is expecting you upstairs

She is confined to her room

Paralysed

This is the girl

Amy Dorrit,Ma'am

You are very little

I am quite strong,if you please,Ma'am

I hope you will be quiet
and industrious,little Dorrit

Affery will show you what is to be done

Flintwinch will see to your remuneration

Thank you,Ma'am

-Flintwinch,the letters
-On your desk

You can start with that,mending

You can work in her room

she likes to have someone in
there should she want something

Amy,don't speak to her

She doesn't want to know of nothing

Good Evening,Mrs Chivery

I have come for Uncle's snuff
and could I have two cigars,please

That will be six pence

Thank you

You've been so long

Look,Mrs Chivery is sending
you these with our compliments

Extremely civil of Mrs Chivery

Very respectful

A very well conducted family,the Chiveries

Such an odd gentleman,you see

His head are right and the knot of
his cravat and the one here

Quite like a corkscrew

And where was that?

Outside,I've heard that
they found Gebring's horse again

And the cook shop next door
having it painted

And a new shop with a window

You all go out so much

I haven't seen Fanny for days

Fanny is doing so wonderfully well,you know

She is really,she looks so pretty
in the dress I'm making for her now

Cream,a very good colour
for her debute,I think

Would you care to dine now?

Amy,silly little thing

Amy,you are tickling me

Very new to me

Amy,you are dear

Fanny,what's that?

Amy,I don't like you to
notice such a trivial thing

There is a pin in here,I'm sorry

Fanny,where did you get that bracelet?

Help me,Amy,I must go now,will be late

It's nothing wrong little goose

A lady I met gave it to me

But Fanny

Come on,Uncle,we must be gone

Have fun

Don't fret,Amy,that's dear

Where is my bonnet?

Uncle,come on,we are late

Uncle,come on

Affery woman,she will
be calling for her tea

Slue yourself,bustle

Yes,Jeremiah

I want for all,don't keep
her waiting,don't do it

Yes,Jeremiah,is that a
letter from Joy,eh?

Poor,poor lady

Don't forget,don't be too curious,Affery

Or I may think you only want a fidgety game

It's a letter from Arthur

May his soul rest in peace,Flintwinch

May his sins be forgiven

May his great sin be forgiven

Now,don't get into any
great tantrum about him

He was Arthur's father,you know

I had no particular
love for Arthur's father

He wasn't much above me when
I served his uncle in this house

He was poorer as far as his pocket went

Starved in the parlour while
I starved in the kitchen

Never took to him much

He was an undecided sort of
chap,scared to death of his uncle

No head for business

But you were the wife his
uncle had chosen for him

And he is dead,so don't

don't

Do not forget

Little Mother!

Oh,Maggy,what a clumsy child you are

Come on

He does pickles

It's very dear, Maggie isn't it?

Pretty strong landing was against

Write a letter to the papers

Let me carry for you old girl

No thank you,I'm fine

Amy,I've got a situation

Luck Tip,what is it?

You know Slinger,the dealer

Well,Hopkins,and where
have you been this hour

He is out on Monday,and you give me a berth

-What is it?
-Horses

I should do all right now,Amy

Oh,could you lend me
four shillings,so be it

Just a trifle I have to say to you

Less noise,there ladies

Noise there darling

Here she is

Amy

Whatever brought you here?

I wanted to see you,I am
going out all day,tomorrow

So I thought it..

But the idea of you coming behind

I never did that

I think since you get here,just like you,
you could make your way anywhere ,Amy

What have you got on your mind about me,Amy

You have got something
on your mind,haven't you?

Nothing important

Just I have been uneasy
about that bracelet

Let me tell you

Let them get away first

So you are curious about me?

I am interested

I suppose I am a little provoking

but you must consider what it is to occupy
my position and feel superior to me

I shouldn't care

Many of them are so common

Below

Uncle,it is time to go home

My dear child,you shall know all about it

We'll drop Uncle off at
the cook shop and we'll walk

if you are not too tired,
to Harley Street,Cavendish Square

Mrs Merdle,my sister,Ma'am

-Also professional?
-No

No,has not the professional
air,very pleasant

but not professional,sit down

My sister,Ma'am,has been
asking me to tell her

how I came to have the
honour of knowing you

And as I had engaged to call upon
you once more maybe you would tell her

I couldn't object,I am sure Miss Dorrit

I have a son,I was first
married extremely young

Of two or three and twenty

He is a little flighty

And he is very impressible

I am very impressible myself
by nature not misfortune

in our natural state I dare say
but we are not in our natural state

Society suppresses us and dominates us

Bird be quiet

We know society is hollow and
conventional,very shocking

But unless we are savages
in the tropical seas

I should have been charmed to be one myself

a most delightful life and
perfect climate I am told

but unless we are savages,
we must consult it

Bird be quiet

So my son is very impressible

Now the stage has sometimes the fascination
for young men of that class of character

By the stage I mean the
people on it of the female sex

Therefore when I heard that my
son was fascinated by a dancer

I confided in her being
a dancer at the Opera

where young men moving in
society are usually fascinated

When I found what the theatre was

I was much distressed

But when I found that your sister

by rejecting my son's advances,had brought
him to the point of proposing marriage

My feelings were of profoundest anguish

In a distracted condition I
made myself known to your sister

and I found her to my surprise,
quite different from expectations

Quite different

I told you,Ma'am

I was so far above the rest that I
considered my family as good as your son's

I am much obliged to you,Miss Dorrit

for recalling it so accurately
and anticipating me

I immediately took a bracelet from my arm

I am the creature of impulse,and
gave it to her as a token of my delight

at our being able to approach
the subject on a common footing

And I told you,Mrs Merdle,
that my father's standing

even in the society in which he now moved

with eminently superior and
acknowledged by everyone

The very words,Miss Dorrit

Thank you,ma'am,let
my sister know if you please

That I had already had the
pleasure of telling your son

I wished to have nothing
whatever to say to him

Quite accurate

And on parting your sister was so obliging

as to allow me to present her with a
mark of my appreciation at my dress makers

And now if you will permit
me to say fare well

With my best wishes,Miss Dorrit

A more primitive state of society
would be delicious to me

If a few thousands persons moving
in society could only go and be Indians

I would put my name down directly

Unfortunately

You know Merdle has made
another enormous hit

They say one hundred thousand pounds

I am glad to think

that all this will be saved

to the coffers of a gentleman to let
him into the best interests of society

Have you nothing to say Amy?

I don't know what to say

You didn't like this young man?

Like him? Almost an idiot

I'm sorry,don't be hurt

I'm sorry you suffered this
lady to give you anything

You little fool

Have you no spirit at all?
And you don't have respect

Would you let your Fanny be charmed
by that woman and thanked her for it

Don't be mad

Then make her pay for it,
you mean little thing

What else can you do?

Make her pay for it,you stupid child

and do your family some
credit with the money

If you despise me so much
for being a dancer

why did you put me in the way of being one?

It was your doing

It's all your fault

And father...

poor father

Because he is not free to speak for himself

you would let that woman
insult him with impunity

If you don't feel for yourself
because you go out to work

you might feel for him at least

After all he has endured

I am the wretchedest girl in the world

I wish I was dead

I beg you pardon,Amy

-Please forgive me
-Please,Fanny

Don't say anything

I shan't go any way near her dressmaker's

I won't have any use to
make my dresses,Amy dear

Only you know Amy

If you knew a little more about the world,
you would see all this in a different way

Noaks was at Garraway's yesterday,
closing price went down again last night

You should have bought

You made a mistake there,Jeremiah

It's going down

We should have bought I tell you

You are one of the most opinionated
and obstinate of women

that's what you are,it's going
down I tell you,I know I am right

There is demon of anger in you Flintwinch

I don't care if there is,I don't like
you to drop down upon me

I won't take it

You mean you don't like
me remonstrating with you

I mean drop down upon me,I won't have it

I won't have you take such
high ground with me when you..

Flintwinch

Now here

You know I am right but you
will have it your own way

When you have a purpose,
nothing will turn you from it

When I have justified it to myself,and then

You are the most determined woman on earth

And if you want to justify your
purpose then of course you will do it

I justify myself by the
authority on those Books

Never mind that

You want to make everything
go down before you

You want to swallow everybody up alive

But I am a bit of oddity in point of temper

And the peculiarity of my temper,ma'am,
is that I will not be swallowed up alive

And I tell you something
else while I am at it

When Arthur comes back I am not
to be standing between you and him

like I stood between you and his father

To be crushed and pounded
between the two of you,I won't have it

It won't be necessary

How do you know that?

How do you know what you want
to do when he comes back?

How do you know if he'll know
even what he wants to do

How do you know he won't be like
his father or weak and indecisive?

How do you know he isn't going to want

to give up the business
and take another stand?

And how do you know he won't
take up his mother after all

Flintwinch,how dare you speak
of her to my face,how dare you

How dare you speak to me
that like that,how dare you

I have brought up Arthur,I have brought
him up to be dutiful and upright

And submissive to me with
wholesome repression and enc..

You mean you terrified him
like you terrified his father

It was for his own good

I shall have seen it by the
light that stood him

I'll tell you,Flintwinch

it was for his good and not for
the satisfaction of my injury

Who was I but an instrument
of war against sin

Appointed to reclaim that lost boy

From that creature of a devil

Did I not devote myself to that task?

Concealing from Arthur all
knowledge of his sinful past

I brought him up in fear
and hardship and contrition

Knowing that the sins of his
parents lay heavy on his head

I watched him looking up at me

with awe

With his mother's face

Trying to scoff at me with
his mother's looks

Which hardened me

Shield me if you like that

Arthur's father reminded no further apart

with half the globe between us
then we were together in this house

From my married day I was his true head

And she been into that

You will have it your way

You hammer headed woman

And have I suffered nothing in this room

No deprivation,no imprisonment

Blind your with a hoot of murmuring

Because it is appointed that I
shall so make reparations

Has there not been reparations enough

In this room for fifteen....years

Mrs Clennam,if you please,do you
want the cups stand out as well

Amy

It's only I was thinking of Bob

Poor,dear Bob

He was a very kind man

Old Bob

Very considerate

How old was Bob,Amy?

He was just sixty nine

Hardly older than me

Soon my funeral will go out
through those gates,I know it

-Oh,father
-It must be,it must be

Will anyone grieve for me?

Will it make some talk?

Will the say "That was the Father of the
Marshalsea gone,the poor castaway gone"

What does it matter

whether such a blighted life as mine comes
to an end,now, next week or next year

What am I worth to anyone?

A poor prisoner fed on arms
as squalid, disgraced wretch

Father,please

Please,please

Amy my poor little girl,
my poor motherless child

What will you remember of me when I'm gone?

Please,don't,darling,please don’t

Amy,how much better you would love me

if only you had seen me
as your mother saw me

I was young and accomplished
and good looking

People sought me out

They envied me,Amy,they envied me

Father,darling,please,look at me

I love you,please,darling

If only I had a picture of me in those days

You'll be so proud of me

I am proud of you

I am proud of you

I am proud of you

kind and you're the handsomest man I
know,I am proud of you,look at this linen

Isn't it soft?

I am going to make some new shirts

the handsomest ever, with a double
row of little stitching around the collar

Who ever has a double row of
stitching around their collar now?

I'd never heard such noise
as now before you come down

What?

The noise

And such a curious movement

Rats

Cats,water

-Drains
-No

I've heard it before

And felt it

Once in the staircase like a rustle
and a sort of trembling beyond me

Affery,my woman,if you don't
get Mr Arthur's coffee pretty quick

you are going to become
sensible to a rustle

and send you flying to
the end of the kitchen

Mrs Affery,shall I take the linen
out to Mrs Clennam's room?

Yes and be quick

Mr Arthur will be coming down soon

Good Morning,mother

Thanks

But if he came sneaking and
sniffing about the fund

it should he be given to understand
that he has no right to it

Wasn't that my idea?

Amy

I've come back,Amy

What do you mean you've come back?

Amy I'm afraid you will be vexed this time

What do you mean,say it?

I've come back as one
of the wretched you see

Oh,no

Tip,not a prisoner,don't say that

I don't want to say it

But you can't understand
it without my saying it

What must I do?

Let it be fully understand
that I shall not neglect..

It shall kill father if he finds out

Oh,Tip,his favourite pickle

Took me so long

Miss Amy

I'm afraid I'm disturbing you

Mr Dorrit said you might be here

Miss Amy,Miss Amy I beg you to listen to me

I know very well your
family is far above mine

and your brother and sister
spurn me from a height

My station viewed as tobacco or
viewed as the lock is lonely

But Miss Amy I have had for long time

a heart cherished wish to say something
to you.May I have your leave to say it?

If you please,John Chivery,since you are
so considerate as to ask,if you please,no

Never Miss Amy

No,if you please never

But John,when you think of us,
my brother and sister and I

Don't think us being different
from anyone else

It will be much better,and never
think of me,nor this place again

I am saying this because
I trust you,good bye,John

Don't,don't cry

-Good Bye,John
-Good Bye, Miss Amy

Something,I do not know what,
has gone wrong with Chivery

I can't think what has given him offence

He is generally so very
attentive and respectful

He was quite short with me last
night,other people there too

It's impossible to forget unfortunately

that I am so dependent on these people
for something every hour of the day

Without their support and recognition
I might starve to death

I can't think what it would be

Look away,Amy

Don't listen to me,Amy,I am a miserable
wretch of ruin,look away Amy

Twenty three years here

All I could do for my children,I've done it

Amy,my love,I have had
you principally in my mind

Whatever I have done

I have done it for your sake,
freely and without meandering

I've done it for you

Oh,look

Soon we should have some runner beans,
with butter and parsley,you know?

Where do you live?

Oh,quite far on the other side of the river

Won't you eat a little,Frederick?

I have dined already,I think

You don't take sufficient
care of yourself,Fredrick

Your habits aren't as precise
and methodical as mine are

Yes

Yes,Willie

If only you could be persuaded
to smarten yourself up a little

Yes

Yes but I can't be.That's all over

Consider my example

Necessity and time have
taught me what to do

I am not like you,William

I know nothing of the world,
I'm only a tired thing

Like the shadow over the sundial

There never was such a house

whisperings,mysteries and secrets

The noise isn't the worst you see,
but it is a feckless dire then

if Jeremiah don't strangle me
in berth as I expect he will

Don't you ever hear noises?

What sort of noises,Mrs Affery?

Rustles and scrambling about,trembling,
treads overhead,treads underneath

I don't think so

You would,though

If you lived in a house and
was obliged to go about it as I am

And it feels any noise
so well worth speaking of

I feel he was near burst

I'm not being allowed to speak

But what they are doing up
there,it is past their time

Jeremiah said you should
bring up the tray today

Arthur he ought to get
the better of them two

clever ones for his own self,
he really ought to

For he hasn't lived here long years
to made a fear of his life like I have

Though he was mighty feared
of her when he was little

She used to lock him up in the dark cabinet

Too frightened to scream
him,poor little mite

Both of us as fear
together we was

That's her oysters

Aren't you late for your oysters?

When I recounted it to doctor Haggage
this morning,he was very much amused

I can't say why I strayed into this story

I really can't see the connection

William,I found this gentleman,Mr Clennam

some of Amy's friends at the outer
gate wishful to pay his respect

But hesitating to come in

This is my brother William,Sir

Mr Clennam,you do me honour,
you are welcome,Sir

-Pray sit down
-Thank you

Welcome to the Marshalsea,Sir,I have
welcomed many gentlemen to these walls

You will excuse,Mr Clennam,but primitive
customs to which we are reduced here

If you would do me the honour,Sir?

Thank you,no

Your first visit here,Sir?

My first

You could hardly have been
here without my knowledge

It very seldom happens that anybody

with any pretensions comes here
without being presented to me

Amy,my dear,I've being trying
half the day to remember

the name of the gentleman from Camberwell

who was introduced to me last
Christmas you know

I don't remember

I mean the gentleman who did that
handsome action with so much delicacy

Mr Clennam,you may
like to know what it is?

Very much

It is so generous

and show so much fine feeling that
it is almost a duty to mention it

This gentleman had a garden
though he wouldn't say so at first

as gardens are not accessible to me

though it came out through my
admiring a beautiful cluster of geraniums

very fine geraniums,which he presented
to me with a piece of paper around it

He made a particular request that
I should remove the paper in half an hour

I did so

It contained two guineas

I assure you,Mr Clennam,
I have received many testimonials

many degrees of value,but I never
was more pleased than with this one

Mr Clennam,my eldest daughter,Fanny

And Tip too

My son,Tip

There is the sign..

There is plenty of time,plenty of time

Mr Clennam allow me to see you downstairs

No,no

I am deeply,deeply..

Mr Clennam

Pray forgive me for having
come but I should like..

You are very good,Sir,but
I wish you hadn't watched me

The bell is going to stop,you must
go now or you will be locked in

The bell has stopped you must go,quickly

Tomorrow morning I'll go by
the Iron Bridge at ten o'clock

-That's not my fault
-That's not your fault

Not, nobody's fault

Who was to blame for it?

His nose once brought to it

shall be held to it,by these hands,
Mr Quench,till the sparks

I now got his..

And the gentleman last night was locked in

Oh,I'm sorry

All right,well he got a
bed,it was Snuggery

What do you go so and so for?

Where are you going,can I come with you?

No,Maggie I'm going to work

I am sorry you were locked in last night

It was nothing

I had a very good bed

Yes I believe there are excellent
beds at Snuggery

It's very expensive

Mr Clennam,I should like
to tell you something

Tell me,Little Dorrit

I want to thank you for last night

And then I wish very much to say

To say?

Then I hope you will not
misunderstand my father

don't judge him like you judge
others outside the gates

he has been there so long,he must
have grown different in some things

not that there is anything to be ashamed of

He only requires to be understood

All he said was quite true,you know

He is very much respected

It is often said that his
manners are a true gentleman

and quite a study,everyone
who comes in is glad to know him

He is more courteous than anyone
else,that's why they make him presents

Maybe I could do something to get him out

No,no use,you do not
know how hopeless it is

Even if it could be done,
where and how would father live

People might not think so well
of him outside as they do here

He may not be fit for a life outside

It would be such distress for him to
know I earn,I earn even a little money

And Fanny.He is so anxious about
us,feeling so helpless you know

I'll come to say good bye,old girl,I'm off

What do you mean?

Someone paid Captain Barbary off

Heard of it from Plornish,
says he is a friend

A friend?

Plornish makes an awful meal of it too

Anyway I am cutting out,I'll see you

A friend?

Tip,Tip,who is it?

Mrs Plornish,I do apologize,forgive me for

Please sit down,Miss Dorrit

The name of the gentleman
that paid of Captain Barbary

I'm not to tell,Miss Dorrit

Sworn to secrecy

All I am at liberty to say

is that the gentleman is a
friend,I dare say,I could say

that he is the son of a friend of yours

and I could say,that he gave
an address in Covent Garden

Little Dorrit,Sir

Poor child

It must be nearly midnight

I said little Dorrit,Sir,on purpose,
I knew you must be surprised

Are you alone?

No,Sir,I got Maggie with me

This is Maggie,Sir

-But you are so wet and so cold
-Thank you,Sir

Maggie is old Mrs Barnham's granddaughter

You are very kind,Sir

You know she can do all kinds of things

She handles her own living
entirely,she really does

But can in no way be right to
be in the streets this late hour

I've never been out so late

We've been to the theatre where my sister
works,I like to know how she is doing

It's not often that I can do it

I pretended tonight that I was at a party

Oh,certainly I was never
at a party in my life

I could never be of any use
if I did not pretend a little

May I tell you something,Sir?

Yes

My brother has come out and
I think,I think I know,thank you

I am very glad for
your brother,Little Dorrit

There is something else

I hope you will not be offended,Sir

No,I promise I won't

I hardly know

if you

can

if you come back to see my
father again,please Mr Clennam

don't do it,don't give it to
him,don't give him any money

You don't know what he is

You don't know what he really is

How can you? Seeing him there all at
once and not gradually like I have done

I understand,Little Dorrit

I can't bear it if you,of all people
would have think ill of him

I quite understand

Have a little to eat?

No thank you,Sir

Maggie might like some,oh,
we must be gone,it's late

We must go,it's late,come Maggie

We must go,we must go,thank you,Sir

But the gates will be locked now

I am going to Maggie's lodging,
I should be quite safe,thank you, Sir

Good Night Sir,thank you

Come Maggie,quickly,we must be going

-Come,Maggie,quickly
-Why?

Come,Maggie,quickly

It's a good lodging for you Maggie,
we mustn't wake anyone

We must be patient,
my dear,and wait till day

It's all very fine for
you,I am a poor thing

Only ten years old

Cold

In only six hours we
will be able to go home

Why don't you have something to eat?

I am cold

I want to go asleep

It'll soon be over,my dear

I wonder

I can answer that Sir,
I'm waiting for Miss Dorrit

Here

Take this to Bethnal Green.Bowdry Lane

Miss Dorrit,I have a message
from a gentleman

Casby

It's ordering for needle work

Thank you,John

I am really so sorry

that I should happen to be late
on this morning of all mornings

Because my intention was
to be ready to meet you

when you came in and to say that
anyone that interest Arthur Clennam

half as much must interest me and I
am so glad instead of which they never

Cold thing Good gracious child
getting worse sitting out in the cold

well I expect you to find you by
the fire and reading the paper

Hasn't that heedless girl
given the message in the end

and if you don't happen to
like either cold fowl or boiled ham

Bread and butter and a
cup of tea is all I usually

My dear child,what absolute nonsense
I can never hear such a thing

You are coming here on
the footing of a friend

Besides which Arthur Clennam
spoke to me in such terms

You are looking tired,my dear,
I dare say you live a great way off

No,I'm quite well,thank you,ma'am

Then take your tea at once I beg

I am obliged to be careful to follow
the directions of my medical man

although the taste is far from
agreeable being a poor creature

may be never recover the
shock received in youth

from giving way to too
much crying in the next room

when separated from Arthur
have you known him long?

I've met him at his mother
on his return from China

Was that at Arthur's mother was it?

Highly sensible and firm
but dreadfully severe

ought to be the mother of
the man in the iron mask

Glowering like Fate in the go-cart

Shocking comparison,really
invalid and not her fault

Mrs Clennam has been very kind to me

Has she really? I am glad to hear it

thinking as Arthur's mother is
naturally pleasant to my feelings

Shall I found my work somewhere,ma'am?

There is really not the slightest hurry

It's better we should begin by being
confidential about our mutual friend

Very proper expression mutual friend

Are you sure you are quite well and strong
enough to work today?

Thank you,ma'am,I've
always been strong enough

to do what I want to do,
I'm quite well thank you

I would rather work here

Then you shall have your way

You must know,my dear,
no doubt you know already

because I have thrown it
about in a general sort of way

because I feel it carry it stamped in
burning what's his names upon my brow

that before I was introduced
to the late Mr F.

I had been engaged to Mr Arthur Clennam
we were all in all to one another

it was the morning of life,it was frenzy

it was everything of that sort
in the highest degree

When rent asunder we turned to stone

in which capacity Arthur went to China

and I became the statue
bride of the late Mr F.

Romance flared as I said Mr F.
when he proposed to me

and you would be surprised,
he proposed seven times

Once in hackney coach,
once on a pew,once on a boat

once in Turnbridge Wells,once on
a donkey,and the rest on his knees

Such is life you see,my dear,
and yet we do not brake but bend

And we draw a veil of that dreamy life

Mr F. was in good spirit,
and we settled down

but yet ere we had fully discovered
the housemaid selling the feathers

out of the spare bed Gout flying upwards
soared with Mr F. to a higher sphere

I returned to papa's roof and settled down

Happily until one day papa
came smoothly blundering in

to say that Arthur Clennam was below

Ask me not,ask me not if I
love him still or if he loves me

What the end is to be
we are surrounded on all sides

by watchful eyes,not a
word not a look must betray us

everything must be silent as the tomb

Hush,dear,hush,I have
told you all,and hush my dear

for I will always be a friend
to you,for Arthur's sake

You are very kind,ma'am

Won't you call me,Miss Flora

But it's as well to leave that now

I cannot undertake to say
after all,you know,you will forgive me

I have some things to attend to,
you're sure you feel well enough?

Quite well,think you

Busy,I see

What are those now,Miss Dorrit?

Handkerchiefs

Are they though!

Perhaps you wonder who I am?

Shall I tell you?

I'm a fortune teller

I should like to have a look at the palm
of your hand,if I am not troublesome

Years of toil,eh?

What else are we made for?

Nothing.Hello

What's this with bars?

And what is this with a grey gown?A father

And what's this with a clarinet? An uncle

And the dancing shoes? A sister

And this loitering about? A brother

And this? Thinking for them all

Why this is you

And what the deuce is this?

If it isn't me

What does it mean?

We shall live to see,Miss Dorrit

Don't mind me,Miss Dorrit

Don't mind me when I come and go

It's no loss

I'm not good company

You shall live to see,Miss Dorrit

Who is that little Mother?

Seen him often,staring

Because he is a fortune teller

I wonder what he knows

There is your neckerchief and
in a regular good bow,father

Regular beau you are yourself,thanks
for walking with Miss Dorrit,ain't you?

Let's go along to father, and
celebrate Nandy's birthday

Julius Caesar,Julius Caesar

I could have believed a great deal of you

but I didn't think I could
have believed this

-Even of you
-But Fanny

Don't Fanny me.You are getting
a little piece of bruise

The idea,the idea of coming
along in the open streets

in broad daylight,arm in arm with a Pauper

Fanny

The way you are determined to disgrace
us,on all occasions is really infamous

The principal pleasure of your life is
to remind your family of their misfortunes

And the next great pleasure of
your existence is to keep low company

You common-minded thing,
you complete prison child

But Fanny

Amy,Amy

But father

Amy, I have done what I
could to keep you select here

To retain a position for you here

I may have succeeded,
I may not,I don't know

I have endured everything

But not humiliation until today

But father I thought you
would be pleased to see him

I heard you liked him

I didn't mean to..

Say no more,Amy,say no more

I will forget it as soon as I can

I shall soon be able to dismiss it

I am always glad to see my old pensioner

It's quite true

How are you,Nandy?

Is something wrong?

Come in,Nandy,have a seat here

Are you well,Nandy?

There

There is Mr Clennam coming up,behind

Good,good,there

Are you comfortable,Nandy?

I'd rather not see Mr Clennam,father

I'd rather go up to my room

Oh,no,my dear,I couldn't think
of you not being here to receive Mr Clennam

especially not this afternoon

Mr Clennam is a very
gentlemanly man,very gentlemanly

a little reserved perhaps at times
but I must say,very gentlemanly

Good Morning

Now be sure it is well buttered
for my old pensioner,Maggie

Ah,Mr Clennam,how fortuitous

Join our little party

Amy,my dear,you know Mr Clennam even
better than I have the happiness of doing

This ,you must know,
is an old pensioner of mine

Old Nandy

Fanny,my dear,Mr Clennam

Nandy is out for the day

Ah,Tip

Tip,don't you see

Yes,Amy,I see,if you
refer to that,I see

Is that all you say

That's all I say

I suppose he will understand that
he hasn't used me like a gentleman

How dare you !

Then don't ask me how I dare,
father,because that's bosh

Besides you ought to be proud
of mine,showing a proper spirit

Spirit? Is my son teaching me spirit

Don't let us bother about it,
father,I've made up my mind

You have no right to make up your
mind,to what is monstrous,parricidal

What is it to do with you

It has everything to do with me

I can see precious well I shall
not get a fair argument here tonight

And the best thing I can do is cut

Good Night,Amy,don't be vexed

I shall be downstairs presently

I know,I know

Oh,Amy,persuade Mr Clennam
to stay a little longer

Mr Clennam,you see,a public duty

Such are the incongruities
of my position here

Amy,my dear,perhaps you may do something

towards erasing from Mr Clennam's mind

the untoward circumstance which
has occurred since tea time

Mind,those stairs,Nandy

Careful now you go out

One at a time

How seldom I have seen
you lately,Little Dorrit

I've been busy,Sir

I've heard you have been in Bleeding
Heart Yard,why not come and see me then?

I don't know,I thought you might be busy

You generally are now,are you not?

Oh,don't do it

Don't think too much about what
had happened here,is that right?

Please

I'm a friend

You know?

You haven't been ill,Mr Clennam?

You look tired

Well,to speak the truth I have been
a little troubled lately,but it's all over

I forgot, you see,how old and grave I was

And I fancied that I loved someone

Do I know her?

No

Well,I found out my mistake

And I thought about it a little and I

Can see how old I am

Why am I telling all
you this,Little Dorrit?

Because you trust me I hope

Yes

I do, and you must trust me

Why do I never see you these days?

My place and use is here

I am better here

I'm much better here

It's said I want to be here

Pancks,the gypsy

Fortune telling

How do you do,Miss Dorrit?

Capital company here,I've
been treating them all round

I'm in wonderful feather

Can't stop a minute,I shall be missed

Mr Clennam,will you step outside
and have a look at them?

I hope you don't mind,Miss Dorrit

I wish you a good night

What can I do?

Good Night,Little Dorrit

Don't,that will change it for your face

it weren't my fault

don't go and shut out a poor
thing of ten years old like that

Hurting her feelings and breaking
her heart,poor thing

It's nothing

I'm just a little tired

It's nothing,Maggie

It's all gone,you see,Maggie

All gone

Never to come back again

I am sure you know best my dear,
I am just wondering if I take in the darts

One can see how dreadfully
stout I've become

To think of the days

when Papa used to bring me to
Mrs Clennam the least of girls

And yet Mr F appeared on the horizon

like an inspector of some well
known place in Germany beginning with B

in calculating the moral lesson
that all the powers in life

are like the power down for an awful length

where they get cold at
any times rubbles of ashes

Good gracious,Arthur

Doyce and Clennam,please
excuse the wrap

I ought to apologize,I know, for so early

but I'm sure you would forgive
me,when I tell you the reason

Nothing that's matter,I mean
no bad news,only good news

Wonderful news

Extraordinary news,Little Dorrit

-Your father
-My father?

Your father,yes,he will
be free within the week

And that isn't all,Little Dorrit

-Shall I tell you more?
-Yes

Your father will be no
beggar when he is free

We must go and tell him,
he will be a rich man

a great sum of money,his inheritance,
is waiting to be paid to him

Mr Pancks discovered all about it

Father,oh Mr Clennam,I must go

Will you come with me,
Mr Clennam,and tell father?

Of course

Of course

Father

I shall fetch some wine,I think

Father,I've something to tell you

I have something to tell you

I've just heard from Mr Clennam

If he hadn't told me so,so very gently

I don't know that I could have..

Amy!

It's so unbelievable

It's nearly impossible

Try,try and imagine the impossible,Father

The impossible it's happened

The wall is gone

It's gone

My dear,I shall see you like
you wanted me to see you

My dearest,I shall see you
like my mother saw you

The wall is gone

The debts are gone

There is money,a lot of money

Mr Clennam found about a
lost inheritance and Mr Pancks

My dear,my dear I shall see
you like you were before

My dear

My dear

Oh Mr Clennam,Mr Clennam,thank you

Really is very extraordinary

We found the most

I mean,Mr Pancks has
worked it all wonderfully well

Mr Pancks shall be handsomely recompensed

Assure yourselves,Mr Clennam

everybody concerned should be,
nobody rewarded no one..

Shall say that he hasn't an
unsatisfied claim against me

I shall repay the advances I had
from you,Sir,with peculiar pleasure

All the people who have been well behaved
towards me and my family shall be rewarded

Chivery shall be rewarded,young John shall
be rewarded,everyone shall be rewarded

Will you allow me,Sir,to satisfy
any present contingencies?

Thank you,Sir,I accept with readiness

I'm obliged to you for
the temporary accommodation

exceedingly temporary but well timed

Amy,Amy,my love,your sister
must be told and your brother

They obviously want
you to show yourself,Mr Dorrit

And your uncle

See to it here,the collar

I might go

He ought to rest lately

Thank you so much,Mr Clennam

Poor things

Does it mean I could pass the lodge
at this moment and take a walk?

Actually not,not quite yet

Very soon

Only a few more days

A few more days?

A few more hours!

A few hours,it's very easy to talk of hours

How long do you suppose an hour is
to a man,who's choking for the want an air

Try and rest,little Father

And make sure you get plenty of them,Maggie

And you must be assured that
no expense,you may have incurred

my dear Sir,is overseen

Money is of no object,
the utmost promptitude

and dispatch all I hear.I can't
wait any longer,Sir

I should like it broader
across here much broader

Yes,Sir

Plornish,I hope that my little
donation will be of some use

And you will take an example by me

how a man may preserve his own
and the general respect even here

Yes

If you could,without putting
any great constraint upon yourself

throw a little polish in to your
usual demeanour,my dear Frederick

William,it is for you to do all that

It's all forgotten

It's all forgotten

For that very reason,you must
positively try to rouse yourself

Your position as my brother,
my dear Frederick,is now a fine one

A very fine one

How can you be so childish

Have you no sense of dignity at all,Miss

Fanny,my darling

How intelligent,why don't you do something
about this awful shabby dress of yours

I beg you to get something more respectable

I dare say being born here has blunted
your sense of propriety for good

But you could remember your
family,and your family's position

Don't be angry,Fanny

I don't like to change my dress
until we leave,I don't feel it's right

I told you,I can't help feeling like that

I can't help thinking the
same way as before

I can't help feeling

this is not such a bad place and
I can't be ashamed of it like you are

I was born here

I've known a number of honest good
people come here through misfortune

I had such a good friend
here when I was quite a baby

I have been taught here

I've worked here,I've been
quiet and comfortable here

I think it is almost impossible not to
have some attachment to it after all

Do we really have to go
very,very far away,father?

It's high time you and your sister and your
brother saw a little of the world,child

Besides,people in our position travel

Farewell my dear

Mr Clennam

I'm thinking in despair,I don't know

Mr Clennam,they are all waiting

I must go

Mr Clennam

Mr Clennam,please don't ever
think of me as a changed person

Don't ever think of me as a
daughter of a rich person

You mustn't think of me as dressing
better,living better than you first knew me

Don't think of me in any way

what will me make a stranger to you,
when you were so kind to me

I think it will break my heart

I shan't ,I promise

Can I ask a service of you?

As a friend

Yes

When you are abroad,
I hear you travel to Italy

It maybe that you will come
across a friend of mine

A dear,dear friend

Her name is Minnie Gowan

Would you tell her that I
hope she is well and happy

Hear,Amy,open your eyes,there is a love

Do rouse yourself,open your eyes,Amy,
I'm so vexed,do rouse yourself,Amy,darling

Oh,Amy,It's really enough to
make one wish one were dead

It's enough to make one wish one was dead

Graciously

Which board have we taken up?

Do not hassle,poor thing,dear

I do declare

this is absolutely infamous.I want to
be exposed this every day of our lives.

Here you are my dear

I know it was a little chilly

It's too disgraceful

Amy,how can you

How can we hope to be
respected by our servants

If one of us could be
rushing about with scarves

I know

Why don't you grow up

We have to

Don't be angry,Fanny

but it does make me feel quite
ill never to do anything by myself

My dear child,you have,we have
a great position to support

We must be vigilant and
making ourselves respected

And not to appear in
the eyes of our attendants

to have at any time dispensed
with their services

And performed them for ourselves

It's highly important

Lord,juste a petite demeure
with dining,Monsieur

Such a genteel lady,an English lady

Is it possible,Sir,that
you have had the audacity

to place one of my rooms
at the disposal of another person?

She is such a most genteel lady

We have to have that other room

They have just taken the petite dessert

How dare you,you have affronted me,
I shall leave your house at once

You have been insolent to my family,
a family more genteel than any lady

What more can I say,Monsieur,
here is the lady herself

I do apologize,please
forgive this good man

I had no idea

that the rightful owner of the room

I borrowed for just a little
time as it takes to dine

Madame,I take it as an honour

Edmund,give me your arm

Now how do you like that,my dear girl

Amy,you aren't ready

Fanny,do I have to

I really

I really would rather not

I'd rather a headache

Do as you please,I don't think Pa would
be too happy,but that's not my affair

I'm going to enjoy myself,
see little of society

I don't suppose you are
coming with us,Amy

I think not,I think I
prefer to stay with uncle

I think you should be encouraged to
call on these people with your sister,Amy

I'm sure I should be very surprised

to find you wishing to
make the acquaintance

of anyone at all in the society

These people should be noticed

I'm told they are very well
acquainted with the Merdles

Mr Merdle is a wonderful man

A man of prodigious enterprise

He is in everything,from banking to
building,all he touches turns to gold

Merdle is a name is of
great tribute in society

The name of the age

You should accompany your sister,Amy

William

I protest

My dear Frederick,what is the matter?

How dare you?

Have you no memory?

No heart

What have I done?

How dare you speak like you do,to Amy

to your affectionate friend,your guardian,
your more than mother,upsetting

How dare you to tell her what to do

But I love Amy

I am as fond of Amy as it is possible to be

I don't deserve to be treated like that

I know because I am anxious
of the family credit

To the wit with the family credit

Setting up superiority

Don't,someone might come in

Amy,I'm not pleased with you

You disappoint me

I wish you'd accommodate
yourself better to circumstances

do what becomes of the situation,
and take your place in society

I am sorry that your are
not pleased with me, dear

I'll try and do better

You hurt me

Hurt you?

There is a topic, a series of events
I wish altogether to obliterate

It's understood by your
sister and your brother,you

only you constantly rewind it,
and not in words,I'm hurt

that my daughter seated
in the luck of fortune

should mope and retire from society

and seems anxious to announced that she
was born a bread in a place

that I decline to name

I was there all those years,
I was the head of the place

I gave my family,you Amy,a position there

I suffered

I deserve a return,I claim a return,I say

sweep me off the face of the earth,
is that asking too much?

If I can put it all aside,if I can
eradicate the marks which I have endured

and emerge a gentleman,unspoiled,unspotted

why can't you, my favourite child,
whom I've made my companion and friend

when you were only a baby,
why can't you blot it out

Am I selfish?

Do I complain for my own sake?

No,for you,for your sake,Amy

I am complaining for your sake

Your sake

Your sake,all

Don't look at me,Amy

I am a ruin,a poor wretch

Schhsh,my dear

You are my dear

Did you ever see such a noodle,my dear?

Why did he look so much this way?

My precious child

I imagine he is dying for a glimpse of me

Is he?

Do you want to encourage him,Fanny?

Encouraging him,my little pet,no,
I don't mean to encourage him

But I'll make a slave of him,I shall
make him fetch and carry,my dear

And I'll go on improving
that woman's acquaintance

His mother

Until I have given her maid,before her eyes

things from my dressmaker's ten times
as expensive as she once gave me from hers

Fanny,can you quite see the end of that?

I can't say I have so much
as looked at it,yet,my love

All in good time

-Do you know how that was,Pa?
-Whom?

The young handsome shoulders just now

That was that Lady at that
town,hotel,what's its name?

And incidentally,she is Mrs Merdle

Mrs Merdle? You mean Mrs Merdle?

How very unfortunate the
disposition of these rooms is

it rather restricts the free
circulation of the guests

So delighted to resume an acquaintance
so inauspiciously begun at that hotel

At that hotel? Of course

I have been disappointed not
to have had the opportunity

to show the high estimation in which
in common with the rest of the world

I hold so distinguished
character as Mr Merdle

I fear he hasn't been able
to get abroad in years

You,Miss Dorrit,I believe,have been
almost continually abroad for a long time

Oh,dear,yes,an immense number of years

Mr Merdle much in demand at home

Such a deuced phenomena,
fired up and banker

I doubt the monetary system
of the country can spare him

Edmund refers to Mr Merdle
being much in request

Mr Merdle is a great benefactor to
society and society is very exacting

Society is a little mercenary,you mean

If we were in a more primitive state
and lived under roofs of leaves

and kept cows,instead of bank
accounts which would be delicious

it might not be so but

We don't live under the roofs
of leaves and keep cows

And society is very exacting

Very

Dear Mr Clennam,dear Mr Clennam

I wish I was dead

What is the matter,Fanny?

Matter? You little moan

Is it Mr Sparkler?

Mr Sparkler,no Miss Butt

Now I've called you names

I've been quite hateful

I don't think you are well tonight

Stop that nonsense,I am as well as you are

Oh,Amy,of all the trying
sister a girl can have

I do think the most
trying sister is a flat sister

I know I make myself hateful

The thing you never tell me so

and the consequences that I'm actually
goading into making myself disagreeable

Besides I don't want to be forgiven

It is not proper that I should constantly
be forgiven by a younger sister

I'm always being placed into a position
of being forgiven whether I like it or not

I wish I was dead

Amy,you are an angel

But I tell you what,my pet,

Things can not go on as they are

And there must be an end
to it,one way or the other

Let us talk about it

Quite so,my dear

Let us talk about it

You shall advice me

Will you advice me,my sweet child?

Thank you,Amy,you are my anchor

My love,what I am going to
say is going to surprise you

What I am going to say,my dear

is that notwithstanding our property,
we are new comers in society

No one would know that about you

My dear child

That is most kind of you to say so

but then you are the dearest
little thing that ever was

To resume,my child

Pa is extremely gentlemanly
but in some trifling respects

a little different from other
gentlemen of fortune

Partly I fancy on account of
it running constantly in his mind

that people think about his past
while he is talking to them

Uncle,my love,is altogether unpresentable

Edward is frightfully expensive and
dissipated,nothing ungenteel about that

But he did do it rather well

Poor,Tip

And poor you,and poor me too

It then becomes a question with me

whether I shall make up my mind to take
it upon myself to carry the family through

How?

I will not submit to being snubbed

I will not submit to being patronized
or tormented by Mrs Merdle

That he has a very good
position, no one can deny

That it is a very good connection,
no one can deny

As to the question of clever or not clever

I doubt very much whether a clever
husband would be suitable for me

I cannot submit

I shouldn't be able to defer to him enough

Oh,Fanny,no

If you loved anyone,you'd
forget about yourself

Bless me

How much some people
know about these things

They say everyone has a subject

It certainly seems to have fit upon yours

That was only in fun

Don't go all flighty

Now I'll go back to myself

I know I wish to have a more
defined and distinct position

in which I can assert myself
against that woman

And that's why you would marry her son?

Why,perhaps

She may think now that
it would be a great success

to get that noodle of a son
settle down with me

If I married her son,I would
compete with her in everything

I would make her older,my dear

I may not be as handsome as she is

But I know I am handsome
enough to be a thorn in her side

And I would be

And you would condemn yourself
to an unhappy life for this?

It wouldn't be an unhappy life,Amy

It would be the life that I am fitted for

For better fitted for that life
than almost any other

Very fine and easy to talk about clever men

I don't see them anywhere near me

The woman has a good figure,
there is no denying that

But is it unapproachable giving
the latitude to dress she has

We would see about that,my dear

I'm a dancer,Amy,but she
has quite forgotten to dance

We'll dance through her life,
and dancing her way

to such a tune as it would disturb
her insolent placidity a little,Amy

Just a little

No,don't argue with me child,
because it is of no use

I understand these subjects
much better than you do

I've not nearly made up
my mind but it maybe

now we have talked this over
comfortably let us go to bed

Good Night,dearest little mouse

Well,my little sister,I suppose
you know what this means

She is as beautiful as she is doted upon,
there is no nonsense about her

It's arranged

-You needn’t explain that,Edmund
-No,Madame

In short,pet

We are engaged

I cannot disguise that the alliance
you do me the honour to propose

is highly congenial to my feelings

As being in unison with the spontaneous
affection of my daughter

And as opening a family connection
of a gratifying nature

With Mr Merdle,the spirit of the age

Have I the honour to conclude,Madame

that the directions which Mr Sparkler's
affections have taken,is approved by you?

I assure you,Mr Dorrit, that,
personally,I am charmed

Personally

Mr Merdle's approval I hope
would not be wanted?

I cannot take upon myself to
answer positively for Mr Merdle

gentlemen,especially gentlemen
who are,what society calls,capitalists

having their own ideas on
these matters but I should think

merely giving an opinion,Mr Dorrit

I should think that Mr Merdle would be

upon the whole

quite charmed

Now,my little dormouse,you shall advice me

Edmund is to be in his public office in
London,I can't let him go off by himself

For he, it is possible to do a foolish
thing ,then he is sure to do it

I see,I am going to lose
you sooner than I thought

Of course,it will mean we
will have to go back to England

so that I can be married,my precious child

We are going to go home

We are going to go home

It would not be easy,at the present moment

what I may call a mere outsider,to
lay down any money into a few good things

I speak of course of my own good things

Of course,of course

Unless there is a higher price

Which we are accustomed
to call very long figures

Ha,ha,very good,long figures

However,I do generally retaining my hand
the power of exercise in some preference

To a defined extent

You are a very good,very good

To a defined extent

I hope you allow me to put my
character at your disposal

Permit me to express the
highest sense I entertain of this

highly gratifying act of attention

I am well aware of the demands on your time

and of its enormous value

That you shall bestow any
of your priceless time on me

I cannot refrain from telling you
again what honour and happiness I feel

Very glad,your daughter is
exceptional beauty

I do hope the young people would be happy

You look tired,dear

No

I am not sensible to fatigue

when it arises from an occasion

so complete with gratification
of the purest kind

Your dear sister,our Fanny,
is about to contract a marriage

eminently calculated to consolidate
our social relations

My love,I trust the times not far off when
some eligible partner maybe found for you

Oh no,I want nothing but to
stay with you like the past years

Amy,Amy this is foolish,you have
a position and a responsibility

to develop that position as for taking
care of me,I can take care of myself

I cannot think of sacrificing you

No,Amy,I cannot do it

My conscience would not allow it

I beg you pardon,Sir

but this young man has been insisting

to come up and says you
should be glad to see him

Young John

It's young John,I think

Yes,Sir

What do you mean by this

How dare you,how dare you
insult me and come here

I'm sorry,I'm sorry

Yes,Sir,this is an affront
and an impertinence

What the devil do you do here?

I thought,Sir,you may to have the
goodness to accept a bundle cigars

Damn your bundle,I don't smoke

What else did you come for?

Only wanted to say I hope
you were well,and Miss Amy

I know it is a liberty,but I never
thought you would take it ill

I am too proud to have done that,
I assure you,if I had thought so

I am sorry if I have been
harsh with you,young John

Some remembrances aren't happy
remembrances,and you shouldn't have come

I meant no harm,Sir

I know

Give me your hand,young John

Sit down

Thank you,Sir

I'd rather stand

How is your father,young John?

How are they all,young John?

They are all pretty well,Sir

They are not in any way complaining

Much to do,John?

Yes,Sir,we are pretty happy at present

I don't know how it is but we generally are

Pretty happy

I wish you Good Day,Sir

Stay a moment,John

I should like to send them

A little testimonial

If you wouldn't object to taking it

Not in any way,Sir

There is many of them
that would be the better for it

Thank you,John,I hope you
overlook what happened

Don't speak of it,Sir

Good Night,Sir

The coffee is cold

Why is the coffee always cold?

Let me fetch you some more

No,call some one,call the servants,
take that bonnet off

I don't want any coffee

I can do without your assistance

I can look after myself

You are very handsome,my dear

Uncommonly satisfactory that
this family should be so united

Could we consider..

Such,such happiness

Shining immaculate staff

Lord Decimus Barnacle

-So glad
-Such an honour

Good Evening

Too glad

-Oh,my boy
-Sir

-Mrs Gowan
-Delighted

I wonder it has occurred
to you,my good friend

That society might go..

I believe Mr Merdle will be
persuaded to leave this ..

Society might hope that one so
blessed in his undertakings as you are

might share a little money

in the direction of our
little mission in Africa

And best seen to care about
nothing like the rest of society

You see what it is

Interesting

We must look to you for that

All troops,My Lord

Why people tell me that I have
to have no apples at all this year

And what about pears

Pears,My Lord

Your mention of pears,could
fill a remembrance for the pear tree

And so we pass through the various stages
of season,of people,pairs?

Two parliamentary pairs,ha ha

Amy

Amy

Amy,my dear

Will you go and see
if Arthur is in the lock?

Amy

A fault pas,my dear,I don't
quite feel myself

I don't know what's the
matter with me,I wish to see Bob

he is my friend just as much
as yours,send for Bob

Come here,please

No,I can't get up those narrow
stairs without Bob,send for Bob

He is the best turnkey

Send for Bob

Ladies and Gentlemen

The duty devours upon me of
welcoming you to the Marshalsea

Welcome to the Marshalsea

Te space is limited but you will find
it apparently grow larger after a time

After a time,ladies and gentlemen,and
the air is,all things considered,very good

Blows over the sunny hills,
over the sunny hills

Those who are habituated to the Marshalsea
are pleased to call me its Father

I am accustomed to be complimented
as the Father of the Marshalsea

Ladies and Gentlemen,my child,my daughter

Born here,born here,
bred here,ladies and gentlemen

my daughter child of an unfortunate
father but always a gentleman

Always proud

It has become a not infrequent
custom for my eh

personal admirers,personal admirers

To be pleased to acknowledge
my semi-official position here

by offering a little tributes,
highly acceptable,a little tributes

which usually take the
form of voluntary recognition

of my humble endeavours to
uphold atoned here

Atoned

I beg to be understood

That I do not consider myself
compromised ha,not compromised

No,not a beggar

No

In my child's name,if not my own

I make this admission in the fullest manner

But at the same time

Preserve

My personal dignity

Ladies and Gentlemen

God Bless you all

Come my dear

My dear

It is so tight,can't breathe

All the air

Go away

Bells ringing,good luck for him, go away

Where is Bob?

Fetch Bob

Bob has called,he is often
off for a day or two

Stay,Amy

Stay,I wish you to stay

My dear,my dear,I volunteered

For your sake,Amy

I've

atoned

I've

borne it

Preserved

My head hurts

My dear,my dear

My poor Frederick

You should sit down

You look weak

Amy

I don't know that I should ever
recover from the shock

Not having been with poor dear Papa

to the last grieving moment
is more than I can say

Edmund,you look so aggravatingly
large in that light,do sit down

Yes,Madame

You make my head ache
remaining in that position

I'm sorry my love

My poor little mouse

I hope at least Edward was of
some use to you in those days

At least to administer or execute

or settle or whatever has to be
with poor dear Papa's affairs

I dare say Uncle isn't much help
to you,my poor little mouse

I am very worried about him,Fanny

He is very,very low

Poor dear,Uncle

Edmund,now you have put me out,
I shall have to go to bed

Don't worry,do that,my love

-What was that?
-Nothing

Nothing,I think it was my gutters tile

I thought I'd give you a call

You have dined,of course

Not exactly

-Would you like something?
-No,thank you

I do not feel inclined to dine

I've let Mrs Merdle go out by herself

I thought I'd give you a call

Very flattering,as you
are not a calling man

No,I'm not a calling man

I was speaking of poor Papa,
when you came in

I was saying my brother maybe
quite slow about arranging his property

Yes,there has been a delay

Not that it is of any consequence

No,not that it is of any consequence

Well,I mustn't detain you

I'm off

Could you lend me a pen knife?

I know that you have several
little wedding keepsakes about

It will be returned to you tomorrow

Edmund,open very carefully,I beg you

the box there,and give Mr Merdle
the mother of pearl knife

Thank you but,I you have one with a
darker handle I would prefer darker handle

-Tortoise shell?
-Yes,thank you

Yes,I would prefer a tortoise shell

I will forgive you if you ink it

I shall undertake not to ink it

Good Night

Good Gracious me

this most be the most wearisome day
that ever did dawn upon the earth

Edmund,if you have anything
to say,why don't you say it?

My adorable girl,I have nothing to say

Good Gracious,Edmund, then don't speak

This must be the longest day ever

It's enough to make one wish one were dead

Mr Clennam

Edward

Something has happened

Yes you can say that,old girl

Look out over there

Look at all those peaceful people

And those quiet homes

What a fearful noise it is going
to be when they find out

This morning it was dropsy

And then any man you care to name

Then it was pressure

they said,there you are,if you persist
in over working,you get pressure

And then about the time in a high change

all manner of whispers started to go about

a temporary suspension
of the bank and a like

And now it is out

Have you been drinking?

Maybe

Merdle is dead

He took his own life

He cut his throat with a tortoise
shell handled pen knife

Oh,Edward

Now they say,that he was a
low ignorant common fellow

A down looking man

That no one was ever able to catch his eye

Now they say that he never
had any money of his own

that his mansions was reckless,
his expenditure enormous

Legions of people that he has deluded

Will be blighted,ruined,and mutter
the name of Merdle with hate

The great Merdle,the patron of patrons

the shining wonder,was just the greatest
forger and thief,if there ever was

You do recognize,Amy ,this has gone

your father entrusted Merdle with
everything and it is gone

That money,it's all gone,old girl

Is it really all gone?

I declare and you will
punch me if you please

It's really all gone

Jeopardized

I am very,very sorry for poor Fanny

-You may be sorry for me,too
-I am sorry for you too,Tip

Tip,eh? What a queer dame you are,Amy

I'll tell you something,I never
thought he was quite a gentleman

Just look at poor Mr Clennam

And it is entirely my doing this,Dorrit

My mistake

What can I say,it's a good thing,
you didn't know,Miss Dorrit

What,Mrs Plornish?

There is ups,and there is downs

Mr Clennam has lost his money
with that scoundrel Merdle,yes Miss

Never mind

As the question of figures,it is
also from outsiders

Enough of money,Mr Pancks

-Enough or get him into..
-The Marshalsea

It's best that you did not
know it, Miss Dorrit

-He is much affected
-He is very ill,Miss Dorrit

Not at all himself

It wasn't our fault

I can't quite believe it

Is it lot of money,Mr Pancks?

Our friend,Mr Meagles,
is trying to raise it

But Mr Clennam won't
take it from him,I assure

He is very low,Miss Dorrit,
I was hoping you'd come

Too much has happened,my uncle died
two weeks after my father, and the money

so many people have lost money
with Mr Merdle,Mr Pancks

A penny,luv

It's the same room,Miss Dorrit

Little Dorrit

You look very ill,Mr Clennam

You must go away from here,Little Dorrit

You mustn't stay here,you mustn't

Mr Clennam, I'll tell you something

You don't belong here

You must go away

My father entrusted all
that money to Mr Merdle

It's all gone

There is nothing of value and anything left

Mr Clennam,will you let me
give you what I have?

Will you let me help you?

Will you let me stay by
you and look after you?

Little Dorrit,don't you know
what I have done?

I have seen Mr Pancks

It's not his fault,whatever he may say

Nobody's fault maybe

Everybody's fault,everyone who was at Mr
Merdle's feet, was a share of the plunder

Whether they were assented,
accepted and approved

I can't believe for gratitude
again,Mr Clennam

Won't you let me help you
put right what has to put right

Don't you see I am ruined

And disgraced,Little Dorrit

Don't you see?

I am old

And broken

Won't you let me have a task?

And a place by you?

If it only

When you lived here

And want of need,help and protection

And I was comfortable and free

If only I understood you then

Or known myself better

Little Dorrit

My Little Dorrit

Don't you see?

It's too late

Now I am old

You were always very kind to me,Mrs Clennam

If it hadn't been for the work you gave me
then we should be wanting for everything

I'm very grateful to you

That is why I come to
you for help,Mrs Clennam

I am sure you know that Mr Clennam
is in prison after this awful thing

Maybe you don't know he is ill

It was his own doing

Maybe you don't know,but all the money my
father inherited is gone in the same hand

Mrs Clennam,I have come to ask you,if you
will help me to pay off Mr Clennam's debt

Now stop the moment

You are not going to do it,are you?

After forty years are you?

You are not going to let her have it

Are you?

Are you?

You're thinking about it,aren't you?

You may even do it

You may do just that
to get the better of me

because that power,you may call
yourself,all the humble names you will

I call you a female Lucifer because
of your appetite for power

But I know all about you

That's power too

Shall I tell her now?

Flintwinch,why do you goad me?

Have I not endured enough,without you,
my faithful steward these forty years

Quite so

I have stood by you these
forty years but not for this

Years of toil and trouble down there

All those shares painstakingly gathered

all those little odd bills
carefully looked after

all that money downstairs and I don't like
to see you dispose of it so lightly

It maybe your religion

But it's my gammon

I shall do as I think just,
Flintwinch,it maybe..

Shall I tell her then?

Shall I tell the little niece of Frederick
Dorrit where some of that money came from?

Oh,no

Not another word,I shall tell her

I will have it seen in
the light that I stood in

It was that Frederick Dorrit
with the beginning of it all

He was a blare of music and kept in those
days an eye loose for blares and singers

And such like children of evil

She was a poor girl

With voice for singing
with,he had her taught

And Arthur's father

who was all along pining for
those accursed snares called the arts

Thus became acquainted with her

And I was humble

And deceived

Not I

A greater high

No,I do not forget,I do not forget

I was the appointed one
to make the discovery

And punish that creature of evil

You mean you hounded her,until she died

The strings of her conscience stood for mad

Was that not that just retribution

She sinned against the Lord
and she wronged me

No,I do not forget the debt,you see

You forgetting the money

the money that Frederick Dorrit
kept sending Arthur's father for her

The money for her that you kept,you used

It wasn't for the money's sake,wretch

The money was tainted with sin

Enough of all that

That's the way you cheat yourself

When you know very well

that you did all that

because you are all slight and spined
and power and unforgiveness

And I tell you something else

While I am at it,I have been
rasped,rasped these forty years by you

taking such high ground,even
with me who knows better

You are a woman of strong
head and great talent

but the strongest head
and the greatest talent

cannot rasp a man for forty
years without making him sour

And so I'm telling you something else

I know where the money is

You know where it is
but you can't get at it

I can

And that's power

No,don't

Don't

No,don't so far

Tell me where it is,you know where it is

-Jeremiah is..
-Stop screaming

Your heap of abusive,help me downstairs

Give me the stairs

Yes

Promise me that Arthur
will never know of all this

Yes

No,don't do it,you can't

Give him the money

But I could not dare him to know of it

While I'm still alive

I promise,yes

Oh Lord

The noise

Run away

Jeremiah

With the help of Mrs Clennam

I was wondering to catch..

I should like to ask you
one more thing,my dear

When your mother gave me the money

she gave me this as well,
I should like you to keep it

Do not forget

I love you
